Hand-knitted Woolen Stole scarf

Our hand-knitted scarves were very popular last year. So this year we bring you hand-knitted stoles made by women in the hill region of Kumaon. Knitting allows women to work their fields, tend their homes and work from home to earn extra income for improved living conditions.

Wash in cold water preferably hand wash and line dry or dry clean. These stoles come packaged in recycled cloth bags. Gift wrapping is available on request

INCOMESelling through Discovered creates more income for artisans. They can set the price they want to receive for the products themselves. By cutting out all middlemen, artisans receive at least 20% more for their products. This is what we call fairer trade.

WORKDiscovered is dedicated to creating positive impact. Not all artisans work alone. Sometimes they work in groups or collectives, are helped by not for profit organizations or work for social businesses. We select our partners to ensure more artisans have work make at least 10% above average wage.

CULTUREWe are committed to crafts. We encourage artisans to make products using traditional crafts and techniques. Making products mainly by hand or with easy accessible tools or common available machines. We believe this is important to keep alive.

SustainabilityWe love handmade. We also feel strongly about preserving the world we live in. That’s why we work with our partners & artisans to stimulate using local materials and natural resources, and paying special attention to packaging & shipping.
